Living just 15 minutes from the water, I realized this was my first time on it all year, and it was a wonderful morning. Eva skillfully managed our group of four women, each with varying levels of experience, from occasional SUP users to total beginners. We encountered some turtles, navigated safely, and one of us even enjoyed some SUP yoga. It was a fantastic way to kick off the week. Thank you, Eva!
There were three of us, all newcomers to boards, and our instructor Eva was fantastic. She was incredibly patient and clearly explained everything we needed to know. Our Stand Up Paddle Board lesson was unforgettable, and we appreciated that Pure Aloha Adventures had reasonable prices, especially being women-owned. We're looking forward to booking snorkeling lessons on our next trip. Mahalo, Eva!
Eva was an excellent guide! She was friendly, professional, and communicated well. Overall, it was a fantastic snorkeling experience. I will certainly join her for the SUP adventure on my next visit.
Stand up paddle boarding was the highlight of my trip to Hawaii. I took a private lesson with Eva, who exceeded all my expectations as a friendly and effective instructor. As a visual learner, I appreciated her clear guidance, and thanks to her, I excelled at my first attempt at SUP. We even paddled alongside a sea turtle right as we entered the water and spotted some puffer fish too. A tip: it's worth it to pay extra for photos. I contemplated bringing my GoPro but realized it would be tricky to use it while paddling. Eva sent me my pictures the same day, which was great. This experience was a 10/10 and I would happily do SUP with Eva again. I'll be sure to recommend this company to others, and I'm considering their snorkeling tour on my next visit to Oahu.
Eva is an incredible instructor who instantly puts you at ease. She maintains a relaxed atmosphere throughout the lesson. Spending an hour with her on the water was definitely a highlight of my trip. I intend to book with Pure Aloha Adventures for my future visits to Hawaii.
I wish I could give more than five stars. If you're considering which company to choose for an adventure in Hawaii, look no further. Eva was incredible. I opted for a private paddle board lesson with photos, and it was exceptional. Eva is an outstanding teacher and a genuinely fun person to spend time with on the water. She captured fantastic photos, many of which I wasn't even aware she was taking. She ensured I was challenged with all the fundamental skills while also keeping an attentive watch for marine life, which made the experience even better. Encountering a few sea turtles was a delightful bonus. I highly recommend this and will definitely book with Pure Aloha Adventures again when I return to Hawaii.
I participated in the Stand Up Paddleboarding Tour and even though I have a few years of experience, I had never tried it in this location. I enjoyed myself and picked up several new techniques to practice. Eva was an excellent instructor, and I look forward to returning and signing up for the class again.
We had an amazing experience. The instructor was very detailed in guiding us and provided encouragement throughout the lesson. It was incredibly enjoyable and one of the best activities my family has ever done.
We had a big group and received plenty of useful advice. This experience is particularly ideal for novices looking to stay in shallow waters and enjoy a tranquil atmosphere. Arriving early is advisable due to the intense sun.
We keep coming back because Eva provides an excellent experience and truly cares about her customers. After kayaking with her in previous years, we returned this year as well. The value is outstanding, the equipment is top-notch, and the location is stunning. The small group size allows for ample quiet time on the water. We had such a great time that we decided to try paddleboarding, which included a fantastic personalized lesson before we hit the water. My family strongly endorses Eva and Pure Aloha.
